For One Last Time

Throughout the first semester of final year, the feeling of coming back into the home university set up after being away for a year was something that was quite daunting to me.   After returning and starting to make some real breakthroughs within our team work, I felt more confident and comfortable with the requirements of final year.   With the help of my team and the tutor team, my first semester of final year has been one of huge learning curves the have benefited me in my team work skills and my confidence in the field of production.  With the major project in full swing, my dissertation was something that continually sat in the back of my mind but wasn’t something I was truly giving enough focus to until it got towards the crunch time of the last few weeks before hand in.   I enjoyed the research aspect of the dissertation but found the hardest stage of writing it thinking of the first words to write down in the document.   With the help of the tutor team I was able to compl
